Education
We come to your school or organization and talk to kids about the real consequences of substance abuse — and we build a support system for those who need more.
Our Mission
100% of every dollar raised goes directly to organizations that help educate teens and their families on the dangers of drugs and alcohol — and to programs that give kids healthier paths to follow.
How We Help
We come to your school or organization and talk to kids about the real consequences of substance abuse — and we build a support system for those who need more.
We work with families to help loved ones through the issues impacting them — immediate family or relatives. Nobody fights alone.
From mentoring to Chucky's cooking clinic, we help kids find programs that get them the help they need and keep them moving forward.
We get teens active in their community — sports, service, the ocean plunge — anything that builds positive momentum and a positive mindset.
Chucky's Fight Story
In loving memory — and in their fight.
Chucky Rosa lost his two oldest sons, Domenic and Vincent, to drug overdoses. The grief never goes away. But out of that pain, he made a decision: no other family should have to bury their kid like this. Not if he can help it.
Today Chucky travels to schools, organizations, and communities across the country — speaking honestly, listening carefully, and walking alongside families and kids who are caught in the same storm that took his boys. Every presentation, every plunge, every late-night call from a parent who doesn't know what to do — it's all carrying Domenic and Vincent forward.
Chucky's Fight isn't funded by any agency or corporation. It's funded by Chucky, his family, and people like you who believe no kid should fight this alone.
Stand with usSignature Event
Every day, Chucky takes a dip in the ocean. Anyone can come jump in with him — businesses, families, individuals, school groups. Warm summer water or freezing winter waves: every plunge is a stand against substance abuse.
"Get a video clip. Show your friends. We all know someone struggling with this disease — help fight the fight."
Stories & Programs
Real programs, real people, real moments where someone chose a different path.
A recovery community for young people who are looking to fight back and build a sober life — together. Led with intention, run with heart.
"Recovery is a daily battle, but with intention and connection, it is a battle we can win together." — Jessie, Fight Club Director
One of the kids Chucky walked alongside came to him at 98 pounds, with nothing left in the tank. A year and a half later, she's sober, healthy, and rebuilding. This is the work. This is why it matters.

In Their Words
"Today is the first day in nearly 7 months that I haven't smoked. When I got home I smashed my pipe and tossed away everything drug related that I own. Thank you for helping me make the first step."
— High school student
"In the short period of time, you taught us something that couldn't be taught in a lifetime. You are my inspiration. You really opened my eyes with drugs and alcohol — I had a sober weekend."
— Student, after a Chucky's Fight presentation
"Thank you very much for sharing your story with my class. It had a lot of meaning behind it. I also liked the coin — I think a lot of people, including myself, will use it."
— Student
